How to delete the word 'References' from the navigation bar in Beamer?

Question

I am currently preparing a beamer presentation and I would like to do something I haven't been able to achieve on my own. I would really like to get the word "References" out of the top navigation bar. See the screenshot below to see what I mean.

An (almost) MWE that produces the above output without warnings is the following:

\documentclass[beaver,8pt,compress,notheorems,xcolor={svgnames},hyperref={colorlinks,allcolors=blue}]{beamer}

With the convenient .bib file named Bib.bib and stored in the same folder as the main .tex:

@article{hartmascolell,
author = "S. Hart and A. Mas-Colell",
title = "Bargaining and Value",
journal = "Econometrica",
volume = "64",
pages = "357--380",
year = "1996",
url = "https://doi.org/10.2307/2171787"
}

Then, my question is: how can I delete the word References from the navigation bar?

Thank you all very much in advanced for your time.

I don't see that when I compile your code. maybe a .aux file clean up does the trick? — naphaneal, Jun 15 '18 at 10:31
Thank you very much for your comment. I'm very sorry, I forgot to add the Bib file. My bad. I have already added the information of the Bib.bib file to the MWE of the original question. I hope this solves the issue. — EoDmnFOr3q, Jun 15 '18 at 10:32
You might be interested in the solution to the follwing related question: How to hide references from navigation bar in beamer class? — leandriis, Jun 15 '18 at 10:37
Thank you very much for your comment. For some reason that I don't know, the solution suggested in that question causes an error in my MWE. — EoDmnFOr3q, Jun 15 '18 at 10:40
@Héctor: The second solution indeed causes an error. Using \appendix right before the frame with the references should work as expected. — leandriis, Jun 15 '18 at 10:44

\printbibliography automatically creates an unnumbered section. This can be switched off \printbibliography[heading=none]. However then an addition miniframe would be shown in the previous section. With a little bit of hacking this can be switched off.
instead of manually specifying the font in every frametitle, you could use \setbeamerfont{frametitle}{series=\scshape}
